Wheat Wreath

I bought a bundle of wheat at the grocery store at the onset of fall and have been enjoying finding new ways to decorate it ever since!

I used some leftover cardboard to form the wreath base, a hot glue gun, some ribbon, and of course, the wheat.

I wanted to create a large skinny wreath so I had to tape together multiple pieces of cardboard to form one big circle.

Then I cut off the heads of my wreath and started hot gluing them to the cardboard base. These things can be spiky so if you have garden gloves you may want to consider throwing a pair on.

After my wreath was completed, I used some leftover ribbon I had from a box of chocolates and hung it on a door. I loved experimenting with wheat and am thinking about making a fuller version next season!
